Abstract: | We report the discovery that flow and Svep1 are modulator of vessel anastomosis during developmental angiogenesis in zebrafish embryos. We show that loss of Svep1 and blood flow reduction both contribute to defective anastomosis of intersegmental vessels. We show that this defect in primary angiogenic sprouts is associated with an expansion of Apelin-positive tip cells and with reduced formation and lumenisation of the dorsal longitudinal anastomotic vessel. Mechanistically, our results suggest that flow and Svep1 act synergistically to modulate vascular network formation in the zebrafish trunk. | ||||
